Subject: Favorite Dead & Co. Show

I've seen about a dozen Dead & Co. shows but this one is my favorite. I believe that the 28 minute Dark Star here is still their longest single song jam to date. It transitions beautifully into Truckin' with teases starting midway through the jam. This is a really special piece of live music for me because I think that Dark Star and Truckin' together provide a good representation of the Grateful Dead's range of sound. Dark Star is formless and the perfect song to illustrate the Dead's unique ability among rock bands for psychedelic improvisation. Truckin' is a energetic blues tune with lyrics that tell the band's story and illustrate their character. This is a show that is well worth listening to and I have returned to it frequently over the last few years.

Subject: Dark Star for the books

Great stuff Row Jimmy, Eyes, & Prudence were highlights and always love a Black Muddy River anywhere it's placed.

That Dark Star really explores the WF Center space!!!

Subject: Nice initiation.

As an early birthday present to myself, I figured I would take my mumsy for her Dead and Co. initiation. What a doozy! Although the sound at the venue was a bit rough where we were, (bass heavy and incoherent, at times) it was a blast! My mom boogied and shook with a priceless smile for most of the show. That was my highlight, for sure. Of course, a beautiful Black Muddy River and explosive Deal were up there. All in all, a super show. Can't wait to listen to Boston. I saw the setlist and drooled. Thanks for the prompt upload. You guys' work is mucho appreciated. Thanks, again.

Subject: Sound Mix - Short and Sweet

A much better and complimentary mix for the band that what's been present on the live video feeds.

This recorded live sound is cohesive and just overall a better fit for the band.

Subject: "Just exactly perfect"

Fall Tour hits South Philly with this masterpiece of a performance. Profound and nuanced, every song has 'it' going on. Too young for '72 > '77 (saw my first in '78) and this show is a Top 5 Philadelphia "bell ringer." Ben Frankin was dancin' in his grave from the first notes.

Subject: Honestly

It was a fantastic show all in all. There were some meandering moments when the group wasn't on the same page. But there were certainly very luminescent bright spots where the group just supernova'd. W. LA Fadeaway comes to mind. Great recording here. Very warm.

Subject: That guy on your right literally never shut up for the entire show

Keith, great sounding recording as always. I'm sorry that the guy in your right channel would not fucking shut up. Someone really needs to just tell these people that its not a social hour for them to talk constantly throughout the show. Its a concert with performers playing music. We paid to hear them, not your inane rambling nonsense, guy in the right channel.

Subject: Thanks for the quick upload on this

Was at the show and I'm still trying to take in how awesome it was. That Deal was face melting!!!! Thanks for your hardwork!

Dark Star.

Thank you Litz for the kind pull and speedy upload. Fine work as per usual.

See you all at the next one, behind the mic, on the aisle. Give a nod.
